	~~[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/~~NetFlow ~~Netflow]~~ is a ~~standardized format~~ to ~~export~~ network data.		NetFlow is a feature developed by Cisco which provides the ability to collect IP network traffic information as it enters or exits an interface. By analyzing the data provided by NetFlow, a network administrator can determine the source and destination of traffic, class of service, and the causes of congestion. A typical flow monitoring setup consists of three main components:
